Mother's day!!

So the big news of this last week like every other missionary on the planet is that they got to call home for mothers day :) :) It's good :)

For those of you not familiar with world news I've got some first hand experience with an insane thing that's been happening within the next province to the west and north a few thousand Ks. In Alberta near Fort Macmurry (Fort Mac) there has been this forest fire that's absolutely devastated everything. I'm so close that we were completely overcast by smoke for two-three days this last week. I doubt this is going to happen but if it does you can't say that I didn't see it coming: I could be displaced if the fire gets any further over the Saskatchewan border towards us. Like I said I'm doubtful that it will happen. But there's been quite a few people come through here on their way out of Fort Mac. Everyone in the city has been evacuated which is roughly 88,000. It's quite the disaster. I've heard that it's the worst fire Canada has seen for hundreds of years. Other than that the peace is being held throughout Canada. 

On other news, for those of you hoping to hear stuff about a baptism this next Saturday it's likely that it might be pushed back indefinitely. Hopefully we can move forward and I'm optimistic that it'll work out :) 

That's been some fairly glum news so on the bright side we were able to go visit our investigator who is an Elvis impersonator and bring a member with us :) we had a good time with him and were able to introduce him to the restoration which having our member there was invaluable. He is very fluent with our doctrine and was able to reach to our investigator in a way we weren't able to :) So now we're going to be bringing him to a members house and teaching him the full deal. It's going to be good :) Plus we got a poster about an event this saturday where some Elvis impersonators are going to be coming from Vegas and performing at the Casino. It's good :) 

I think that's it for mass emailing. I've got some pictures to send so be expecting them :) I love yous and I hope yous have a great week :) Potatoes gonna potate
 
So this is what real poutine looks like. (generally I like more gravy in mine)
